SwarmFi: AI Agents x DeFi
SwarmFi: AI Agents x DeFi
For IIT-D students
Join BlocSoc, IIT Delhi and the Ethereum Foundation on 22nd August for an afternoon focused on autonomous AI agents, DeFi, and the infrastructure needed to build secure onchain systems.
We will discuss how agents interact with DeFi protocols, make payments, protect data, coordinate with other agents, and earn trust onchain. The lecture will be followed by a three-day online buildathon where participants can turn these ideas into working prototypes.
No prior experience with AI agents is required. Students, researchers, developers, and anyone curious about AI and crypto are welcome.
